Inner thigh lift surgery for thinner, firmer inner thighs

Inner Thigh Lift in Huntington Beach CA Area

The inner thigh is a problem area for many people, as the body tends to hold onto stubborn fat in this location, and the effects of aging can contribute to loose, lax skin over time. Excess skin and fat in the thighs can make you self-conscious about wearing shorts, skirts, and swimwear and can also cause pain and discomfort due to the skin of the thighs rubbing together and chafing. At Orange County Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery Center in Huntington Beach, California, Dr. Nguyen helps patients achieve slimmer, tighter thighs with inner thigh lift surgery.

What is an inner thigh lift?

Sometimes eating a healthy diet and getting regular exercise simply can’t reduce the appearance of stubborn fat deposits in the legs. An inner thigh lift is an increasingly popular procedure that is designed to reduce extra fat and skin in the thigh area, resulting in tighter, slimmer legs that have beautiful contours.

What to expect

The specific procedure that is performed depends on the amount of fat and skin that needs to be removed and where it is located on the thigh. Generally, the procedure lasts between three and six hours, with longer surgical times needed for greater amounts of tissue removal. Patients with minor sagging skin and fat can typically benefit from a procedure that only uses a small incision in the groin area that can be easily disguised. More significant amounts of excess skin and fat will need a larger incision. Still, Dr. Nguyen always takes extra care to make the incision as small and precise as possible to help reduce the appearance of scarring. The procedure is performed in an outpatient surgical center under general anesthesia, and you will be free to leave for the comfort of your home after you have sufficiently awoken from the anesthesia post-treatment.

We will provide you with all the after-care information you need for optimal healing, along with compression garments and drainage tubes to prevent fluid accumulation in the treatment area.
